A portion of the Childress Collection was on display at QuiltCon 2019. One of the more stunning pieces was this rare, antique Bullseye quilt. According to the curator, most known Bullseye quilts are attributed to Lenhartsville, PA, circa 1870, and tended to have white space between the circles. A later group, post 1900, filled in the white space with more circles. This may be one of those quilts and is attributed to 1920.
